DSLR Newbie - Tips & Tricks?
I received my new Nikon D3000 kit in the mail yesterday, it included 18-55 and 55-200 mm Nikkor AF lenses, bag, and some other goodies. Here's what I bought for reference:
Amazon.com: Nikon D3000 10.2 MP Digital SLR 6 Piece Bundle with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX & 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lenses: Camera & Photo
This represents me moving up from the simple point and shoot digital world into doing some real photography, mostly kids, kid sports, and vacation type stuff. I have no ambitions of getting to a pro level, but I'd like to be competent with the features of the camera. Other than reading through the camera manual and included DVDs, what other DSLR resources would be helpful for a dummy like me? Any tips, tricks, etc to share? I'm still working through understanding basics like ISO, aperture, and shutter speed, so speak slowly.
